Curriculum

The curriculum consists of 10 to 16 courses that increase global knowledge and awareness, enhance skills to work abroad and provide challenging experiences. The program contains four coordinated components: (1) a set of foundational courses that may be fulfilled partially or completely with a student’s previous undergraduate or graduate coursework (2) a core of eight courses that include an international business project or international business internship (3) an international business study abroad trip and (4) one elective course.

Foundational Coursework All North Central College students must satisfy the foundation coursework with a grade of B- or above. These courses can be taken at the undergraduate or graduate levels and may be taken at North Central College or another college or university. Foundational courses do not count toward the minimum 10-course degree requirement.
